(Psalm 73:23-28)
Yet I always stay close to you,
and you hold me by the hand.
You guide me with your instruction,
and at the end you will receive me with honor.
What else do I have in heaven but you?
Since I have you, what else could I want on earth?
My mind and my body may grow weak,
but God is my strength; he is all I ever need.
Those who abandon you will certainly perish;
you will destroy those who are unfaithful to you.
But as for me, how wonderful to be near God,
to find protection with the Lord God
and to proclaim all he has done!
